Professor Justin Sider of the University of Oklahoma English Department will present "Victorian Medievalism and the Pleasure of the Past".  The talk will look at the way artists and writers like William Morris, Dante Gabriel Rossetti, and Christina Rossetti borrowed the artistic forms of the past and put them to modern purposes.
